/**
 *
 *         Classes that define the (High-level) Intermediate Representation (HIR) if the C1X compiler.
 *
 *         HIR instances are created by processing Java bytecodes and are Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs). All nodes in
 *         an HIR graph are concrete subclasses of the abstract class {@link Value}. This indicates a property of HIR,
 *         namely that everything is a value, including instructions. This allows an operand for an instruction node to
 *         refer directly to the node that generated the value, which might, for example, be another instruction.
